Answers:

1).c) 2). a) 3). c) 4).b) 5).a) 6). c) 7).
c) 8). c) 9).b) 10).b)

Solution:

1). Let the
numbers of coins be 3x, 4x and 4x respectively,

Then, the value of coins = (3x / 1)
+ (4x / 2) + (4x / 4)

= 3x + 2x + x = 6x

Given 6x = 90

∴ x = 15

Number of 1 rupee coins = 3x = 3 ×
15 = 45

Answer:
c )

2). Suppose x
white marbles are added.

Then, (x + 40) / 120 = 50 / 50

Or, x + 40 – 120

Or, x = 80

Answer:
a )

3). (A + B)
can do 1/12 work in 1 day,

Again B + C can do 1/18 work in 1
day,

And C + A can do 1/20 work in 1 day.

Now, 2 (A + B + C)’s 1 day’s work

= (1/12) + (1/18) + (1/20) = (30 +
20 + 18) / 360 = 68 / 360

∴ ( A + B + C)’s 1 day’s work = 68 /
720

Hence A, B and C will complete the
work in 180/17 = 10 (10/17) days

Answer:
c)

4). 40 men,
working 10 hours a day can do a piece of work in 80 days.

Suppose x men can do the same piece
of work in 20 days, working 8 hours a day,
